“Kenya’s agriculture and food sector can thrive — but only if devolution works as intended.” Excited to share that my article “Harnessing Devolution to Transform Kenya’s Agriculture” written in the context of the just concluded #DevolutionConference was published by The Standard yesterday! In the opinion piece, I argue that for devolution to truly deliver, counties must strengthen coordination, remove trade barriers like prohibitive CESS fees on agricultural produce and inputs, and embrace climate-smart, inclusive approaches that empower farmers, pastoralists, and fisherfolk. Counties can, and should take decisive steps to make agriculture and food systems transformation possible. 👉 Read the full article here: [https://lnkd.in/dcRichQh] #Devolution #Agriculture #FoodSystems #Kenya #TMG #FoodSystemsTransformation TMG Think Tank for Sustainability, GIZ Kenya, Dr. Sophia Baumert, Jeffrey Ngari, Sharon Vera.

At New York Climate Week, PFS CEO Mandla Nkomo joined (virtually) a roundtable on the new Africa Adapted Crops Initiative (AACI), hosted by AGRA and Food Action Alliance , in collaboration with TechnoServe and Bain & Company. This builds on an earlier roundtable at the AFS Forum in Dakar, bringing together leaders from governments, funders, farmer organizations, and research institutions on the need for food systems transformation in Africa. Adapted crops — like millet, sorghum, and fonio — are nutrient-dense, climate-resilient, and rooted in Africa’s food traditions. By mainstreaming and commercializing these crops, we can strengthen food systems, build resilient livelihoods, and meet growing demand for nutritious foods across Africa and globally. That’s the vision behind AACI: unlocking the global market potential of adapted crops through new partnership models connecting the public, private, and philanthropic sectors. AACI will focus on: 1️⃣ Catalyzing demand to boost smallholder prosperity, climate resilience, and local value addition 2️⃣ Mobilizing closed-loop partnerships anchored by farmer-allied enterprises 3️⃣ Attracting catalytic capital to scale adoption and investment Excited for the collaboration ahead! #Africa #FoodSystems #ClimateWeekNYC #ClimateResilience #FoodSecurity #AdaptedCrops #AACI
